Designed by the Barcelona City Council in collaboration with the Urban Ecology Agency, the Superilles (Superblocks in English) of the Spanish city of Barcelona have proven to be an effective plan to free up the urban space for other uses than automobile traffic. This video is the first of a series of five on the Superblocks, in which the urban planner - also one of the drivers of the Superblocks concept - Salvador Rueda, describes all the key aspects and benefits of those traffic-free neighborhoods. In this video, he explains how the Superblocks encourage to rethink cities.
